Product Applications
Sweeping on Hard Surfaces
When organic debris covers a hard surface it looks unsightly, but it also blocks drainage channels, which leads to surface water. Over time the material will decompose producing soil. Opportunistic weeds can use this soil as a platform to grow on the surface, which can cause damage over time. So it is really important to keep the surface swept and to remove the material.
Sweeping on Artificial Surfaces
In addition to the normal problems we face maintaining hard surfaces; artificial surfaces have infill, which gets compacted and also migrates around the surface. This infill can be de-compacted with a sweeper allowing the surface to drain properly. The sweeper will also even out the distribution of infill and stand up the grass, making the surface much nicer to use.
